    I love Pokemon, I really do. Anyone that calls it a kids game has obviously not played it recently. It's far more then that and it is the only reason why I have ever owned a Game Boy Colour, Advance and the DS.I love FIRE PIG, however David Cameron and the water one who looks like he has downs syndrome are rubbish.
  3. I hope everyone just remembers what he said about helping the elderly and the poor. Thats the one I'll be hoping the coalition delivers on.
  4. Again I'm on the other side of the fence here (seems to be a worrying trend). I would absolutely hate a dark ride at Thorpe. Not because I don't think it suits the park but because I would bloody hate queuing. It feels like everytime you put teenagers in No Way Out's indoor queue line they have to scream and start being anti-social.So I would actually despise a ride in the dark at Thorpe.
  5. I'm actually entirely on the opposite side of the fence here I think. Nemesis and Colossus can get away with looking rough as one was already designed to look aged, the other is a lost city and doesn't need to be brand spanking new.Maybe Vampire would get away with it if the area wasn't looking so run down. I don't expect Vampire to look perfect in its 21st season but on the other hand looking like its falling apart is an entirely different matter.

  7. I'd go with the Castle theme. Painting everything purple is not a theme. Merlin have proved with Wild Asia that they go for theme over style so if they were to do anything I'd want them to actually make Vampire look finished. At the moment it looks stuck awkwardly between awesome, best in the UK theming to just crap. It needs a real look at and a genuine redo. The ride itself is fine, it's not amazingly thrilling but its the perfect ride for the families. Now it just needs that little bit of theatre, a little bit of shine to reconfirm its place as one of the UK's most memorable rollercoasters.
  8. I really wish the park gave a damn about Vampire to the extent that they clean up. Colossus seems to be the one everyone goes for.. "it needs a repaint, it looks shocking" and all that. Have these people actually seen the diabolical state Vampire is in at the moment. A repaint needs to be on the agenda, and soon.

    Was that in English?

    The snakes were fixed onto the sides of the arms and the Supports so got in the way of maintenance. At least thats the reason I believe... my minds a bit foggy though.

    Those Rameses photos are mine. I love the colours of old Rameses, just a shame the damn snakes on the side were the reason for its retheme.
  12. You know, even before I opened this topic I knew you were going to say that.So to help make this post more relevant, I'd like to ask what flat ride you think Thorpe should get.
  13. But Outfit... they've already won the most seats in the election anyway.
  14. Surely its no one faults then Micheala.

    I got a job at Waitrose three weeks ago and I absolutely love it there. Great bunch of people in a little store and all have said I fit in there so well and so quickly. I sell things like cakes, pizzas, porridge, pretzels, bread, soup, lattices, sausage rolls and the such and I love it.
  16. Welcome to the real world then Ryan, horrible, cruel things happen. These things are out of control but think of the brutual, horrific things the Taliban regime did to people during their reign or Iraq such as pucli executions of women, children and families by stoning.
  17. Ah you see, this is the usual response to any kind of Iraqi war question. And the question I really want to know the answer to is... is there ever a good time to go to war? Now, in a brief run down. The Falklands occured in 1982 and helped Thatcher retain the Prime Minister position in 1983. Are we genuninely saying that if the Tories had been in power after September 11th and America was sending troops into Iraq, that the Tories would just say No Deal?
  18. I think its very rude of the labour government to think people who joined the army actually wanted to fight...What a rude bunch of t*****s
  19. Blowjob lips?

    You've been on Saw right?
  21. Yes thats right, apparently Cameron reads the Sun.Thats his own boat.He eats fish!He wants to kill your children.
  22. 2009 Attendence ReportAccording to this our parks attendences are all up. My surprise was Chessington at 1.3 million guests. How the... did that happen.
  23. Just because it doesn't get long queues doesn't mean the waiting times aren't long. Again it comes down to the stupid loading procedures on it. During Summer the queue was around 40 minutes which for a terrible ferris wheel is terrible.Needs to be removed and pronto. A decent ride with a good throughput, not a ferris wheel with some ok views.

    If you start thinking what happened on a ride could happen on your ride, then you won't do anything. You don't get in a car thinking about all the car crashes that happen every hour of every day so don't let it bother you.I've seen things at Chessington that have downright frightened me, but I sitll go on the rides as they are safe.
